- Where does SCO go from here?
- Anyone who was surprised by this week's court decision (Another nail in SCO's Linux lawsuit coffin) has not been following the history-turned-saga of UNIX all that long. AT&T unwittingly spawned what would become the open-source movement by turning to America's colleges and universities for UNIX software development during the 1970's. In...
